Hi guys,
I have cracked my nexus 5 screen and decided to replace it by myself.
I have ordered replacement kit (frame+lcd+touchscreen+glass).
After assembly with new screen everything is working fine except touchscreen(is not responsive at all).
After switching back to old one(cracked) touch is working.
I have tried soft and hard reset, and flashing image-hammerhead-ktu84m factory rom, no result.
Is there any suggestions I can try or throw it away and buy something else ?
I would ask for a refund on the assembly if it came with a broken digitizer

I actually have the same problem. Replaced the screen myself and the touchscreen does not seem to be working. Did you manage to find a solution? In the old (broken) screen the touchscreen does continue to work (even tho the glass is cracked and fragments fell out).

Ok so i walked into my desk at work last week and cracked the LCD - i had already puchased a new digitiser as my screen was getting pretty scratched up so i figured i'd simply buy a new LCD and take the phone and new parts round the corner to my local phone shop who were happy to replace my screen and return the next day.. great.
Fast foward and now i have a BIG problem. The new LCD doesnt seem to work once the phone has booted. SO, when you turn the phone on you get the usual windows boot screen with the rom info in red in the bottom corner (im using Monx's latese 6.5 rom). After that though it all goes Pete Tong, when then alignment wizard starts the screen goes nuts, flickering like an old TV and not displaying a steady image. The guys at the store say the phone is damaged from the knock to the screen however before I did a hard reset and removed my sim and SD card the parts of the LCD that were still able to display the today screen etc were showing everything correctly and flicker free and even allowed me full touch control with the stylus.
I basically need some advice from people who know a thing or two about replacing Touch Pro screens. Despite what the shop guys say i suspect that my screen is not compaitble with my Touch Pro which is originally a UK Vodafone but i now live in Canada and got the new LCD from the States. The person who sold me the LCD said it was compatible with all Touch Pros & Diamonds, but then he would say that wouldnt he!
My options are either buy another LCD and hope that does the trick or bite the bullet and get a new crappy canadian contract and a new handset. please help me ive tried the search and cant find anything that helps me and im desperate for a solution!
Cheers
Its a LCD issue what you got, my guess is that the person at the store either gave you a faulty one or its a duplicate lcd,also cleaning the LCD connector with alcohol would be a good idea.Its very rare that in the Diamond/Touch Pro category the connector to get damaged.
Hi! I have a broken Samsung Nexus S GT-I9023. It work, just it have some big crack on the screen. I found a shop in my country, where i bouht 2 new original Samsung LCD screen. Since i changed the lcd, it works but the digitizer can't detect my fingers. I tried the second screen what i bought, but the problem is the same. If i put back the old cracked screen, it works perfectly. I visited the shop where i bouht, but they haven't more screens.
I tried some ROM, but nothing good... (2.3 / 4.04 / Cyanogen)
There is any solution for this? A newer driver? Or anything?
Anyone?
Hi,
My aunt dropped her one s which shattered the screen completely.
I ordered a replacement screen and followed a video guide on how to replace it
(i've replaced screens on other phones before so I thought I could manage )
The screen turns on, but it does not respond to touch... Any ideas on what I should check or what I might have done wrong?
It would be great to be able to give her the phone back as a christmas present so any help would be very much appreciated!
Thanks and happy holidays!
Sorry for the late response, so I don't know if this still pertinent to you, but did you replace just the screen or the whole screen + digitizer? If only the screen, the digitizer might be broken making the touchscreen not work hope this helped
No problem
I changed both:

Ok so ive replaced the screen on my mums N5, with one i got here.
(its not letting me post the link to where i bought the screen, i'm too new, but this is the description "US White Google Nexus 5 LG D820 D821 LCD Touch Digitizer Screen Assembly + Frame", i got it on ebay)
The installation went fine i think, i may have damaged the camera, but i biggest problem is the touch screen. It was ok after a reboot and it was not charging. But now it is totally off now. Like and inch or 2 off making it unusable. Ive been trying to find a way to calibrate the touch screen but i have not been successful. I was hopping that someone had an idea of how to fix this. The phone seems to work in all other ways, but its hard to test at the moment.
Thanks T
Hi y'all!
It happened today. After many years of being very careful with my phones, today I dropped it and the front screen broke on my 1+ 8. Being that I like to fix everything myself, I already looked into getting a replacement screen. However, I remember reading about some phones who lose fingerprint usability after replacing the screen. I was wondering if this is the case with this phone, and what I can do to fix it.
I was thinking what if I do a factory reset BEFORE the screen replacement, and not encrypt my phone. Maybe this will allow the new sensor to work after the replacement. Any thoughts?
While I'm at it, I was wondering if I could convert the T-Mo version to global version and use dual sim by replacing the board. I will already have the phone torn down. Has anybody done this?
